If you write it in "textspeak" then you could make it even shorter.

Alternatively you could go to freeBMD:

http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

And put:

Marriages Sep 1886 Macclesfield 8a 223

Kenworthy Elizabeth
PRINCE George Edwin

And a request such as:

Can't find them on 1891/1901 census
Can't find their parents

Don't know who their fathers were and haven't got the marriage certificate

etcetera

Or you could do a search for him on freeBMD and get a possible:

Births Dec 1863 Macclesfield 8a 125

PRINCE George Edwin

And then look for him on the free 1881 census:

The 1881 census doesn't make sense. It says that Samuel 43 is the son of George 53.

Just looked at the 1881 extract and it does match what the familysearch transcription said.

Wonder if it's mixed up and Samuel and Ann were a couple and George was with his son George E. Perhaps Samuel was George seniors brother.

(You're correct, David, Samuel is George Sr.'s brother.)

Don't know about that marriage, David, seems they were already married in 1851. (Curious no children until 1863.)

Margaret and David

Your fab ! Sorry I m a novice to this posting idea and did nt know such fab experts were out there

I know my great grandfather was George Edwin Prince, b 27 nov 1863 + d. 11 jan 1947 + m. Elizabeth Kenworthy 26 aug 1886 (then m. Florence, no issue). D. at 99 chapel st leigh. M. at prestbury church chester 1886.

I know his father was George Delves Prince,at sons marriage described as "weaver"

That s the end of certain information.

I have never found any record that contained the middle name ( if i remember correctly) .So I believe he is GeorgePrince b. 1828 -29 + died 10 oct 1895 at 1 mount pleasant villa, aprsonage st, halstead essex + 1841 census park lane, macclesfield in the parish of prestbury church , silk piecer. Now did the census contain his middle name ? i ll look for the records....

Matt
